What do you consider fun? Haha, I really should be studying for a UPII test on optics, but to me that's just NOT fun. Anyways, so I thought I would write about something I don't get to do very much, and I consider this hobby to be just simply put, ... awesome. This past weekend I got to go on another "photo shoot," and this time it was at my gma's house. I posted a few pictures out of the bunch that I thought were pretty good. Of course I am not going to post the better ones, but lets just say their are some amazing ones! I guess this hobby is fun to me because it takes my mind off of the stressful things in life. It basically allows me to get down and dirty on the ground and see things never before seen or noticeable to some people. I think it's important to do something like this because people need to allow themselves to have some sort of balance in their life. People can only take so much before they break. I have also submitted some of my photography to a magazine that is having a photo contest. Hopefully, they'll like some of my work because if they do like it, future publications are possible. Oh, and there is a cash prize as well so that makes it pretty sweet.
So, what do you consider to be fun? Hopefully it's fulfills a purpose and isn't too wild. I mean this past weekend I could have gone out if I wanted to, but I know where that road leads to and what kind of trouble people can get into. I honestly do think that this is the BIGGEST misconception of all college students, and I am pretty darn sure that since it is a misconception students are going to fulfill it because people that make that misconception believe that they are going to do it. I hope that wasn't too confusing. This has been bugging for a long time. Anyways, not all students are partiers and pot growers even though there are some next door to me. Yeah, this is suppose to be the time of our lives, but really if you think about it I am going to have a professional career in a few years. I don't want to sound all boring because I'm not. ONE thing I know for sure is that in order to keep kids from rebelling is to get to know them and to develop relationships with people you don't normally associate with. This is one thing that I think is essential to society because people need to know that people actually do care. It also makes people feel like they are apart of the society that they live in. It also keeps them connected. Kids that move off feeling such a connection are more likely to make better decisions because that part of the conscious kicks in and tells them what they are doing might be wrong. On the other hand, I have also noticed that people do move off so that they can live a life that is so called "fun," even though it may hurt people they know back home.
Communication has been lost because it's not a top priority. Paying bills, making deadlines, and keeping things in order always seem to come first. The other day I noticed one of my good good friends had upside down crosses as ear rings. Many times I have wondered why people go to such lengths to buy ear rings like that and especially put them on in public. It bothers me to know that she thinks that way, but from her personality you would have never known it. She is the nicest person in the world, but really what I would like to know is just when did she make that decision and what made her make it.
Summary: Rebellion to me is led on by lost communication because of various misconceptions.
I don't want to sound like I am like ragging on people because I am not. If things are broken, then they need to be fixed, and if things aren't broken fix them anyways. Many times things are best fixed if you step back and just look at the situation at hand. Don't worry about the fine details within the situation. Fix the big stuff and work the small stuff out. Neil Armstrong didn't just didn't go running around the moon, they first looked at what they wanted to do and then they stepped out and took that leap.
Not all great teachers are good thinkers.
FYI: Apparently I am going blind, my hair is turning colors (red)/falling out/and pulling an Einstein. So, in a few years it looks like I am going to have patches of wirey, red hair.
